INEC Postpones Nigeria’s General Election

The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has postponed the General Elections scheduled to hold today.

The commission has shifted the election by one week. Explaining how difficult it was for it to shift the general elections, INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu who briefed journalists at about 2:43am on Saturday, in Abuja, said the commission had met on Friday, 15th February 2019 and reviewed its preparations for the 2019 General Elections earlier scheduled for Saturday, and therefore, shifted the Presidential and National Assembly elections to Saturday, 23rd February 2019.
He said the commission would later in the day be meeting with key stakeholders at the International Conference Centre, Abuja to discuss issues surrounding the development.

According to him, “Following a careful review of the implementation of its logistics and operational plan and the determination to conduct free, fair and credible elections, the Commission came to the conclusion that proceeding with the elections as scheduled is no longer feasible, said Yakubu.

“Consequently, the Commission has decided to reschedule the Presidential and National Assembly Elections to Saturday, 23rd February 2019. Furthermore, the Governorship, State House of Assembly and Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Area Council Elections is rescheduled to Saturday 9th March 2019, he added.

WHY WE POSTPONE THE ELECTION, By INEC

There is anger in the land. Nigerians are asking why the same mistakes will be repeated from 2011 to 2015 and now 2019. How can we institutions in Nigeria can't learn from past mistakes and simply make things better? Why?

After a confusion-packed meeting which lasted about eight hours on Friday night, the Independent National Commission (INEC) in the early morning of Saturday announced postponement of the general elections.

The Presidential and National Assembly elections will now come up on

Saturday, 23rd February 2019 while the governorship and state Assembly election will now hold on 9th March, 2019.

INEC had earlier scheduled today 16th February 2019 for the presidential and National Assembly, while the State elections were scheduled for 2nd March, 2019 before this latest decision by the commission.

INEC hinged the postponement of the elections on logistic challenges.

INEC Chairman Prof. Mahmood Yakubu and the National Commissioners met with some observer for hours before reaching the decision.

The announcement came barely few hours to the elections.

Announcing the decision, INEC Chairman Prof. Mahmood Yakubu said it was a difficult decision to take. He however, said INEC will be meeting with stakeholders by 2pm today (Saturday).

He said: “The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) met on Friday 15th February 2019 and reviewed its preparations for the 2019 General Elections scheduled for Saturday, 16’h February 2019 and Saturday, 2nd March 2019.

“Following a careful review of the implementation of its logistics and operational plan and the determination to conduct free, fair and credible elections, the Commission came to the conclusion that proceeding with the elections as scheduled is no longer feasible.

“Consequently, the Commission has decided to reschedule the Presidential and National Assembly Elections to Saturday, 23” February 2019. Furthermore, the Govemorship, State House of Assembly and Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Area Council Elections is rescheduled to Saturday 9‘h March 2019. This will afford the Commission the opportunity to address identified challenges in order to maintain the quality of our elections.

“This was a difficult decision for the Commission to take, but necessary for the successful delivery of the elections and the consolidation of our democracy.

“The Commission will meet key stakeholders to update them on this development at 2pm. on Saturday, l6lh February 2019 at the Abuja International Conference Centre.”
